Question

Which of the following years is NOT a leap year?

• A. 1900
• B. 2000
• C. 1896
• D. 1924
• E. 2024

Answer 1

The Correct Option is A

Leap Year Rule:

A year qualifies as a leap year if:

• It is a multiple of 4.
• However, if it is a multiple of 100, it must also be a multiple of 400 to be a leap year.

Year Analysis:

• 1900: Not a leap year (divisible by 100, but not by 400).
• 2000: Leap year (divisible by 400).
• 1896: Leap year (divisible by 4).
• 1924: Leap year (divisible by 4).
• 2024: Leap year (divisible by 4).

Conclusion: The only year that meets the criteria is 2000, which is divisible by 400.
